The Andhra Pradesh Legislative Council witnessed a bitter exchange on Monday between cabinet minister and TDP leader Kinjarapu Atchannaidu and YSRCP veteran Botsa Satyanarayana over the DSC teacher recruitment process. Atchannaidu called Botsa an 'Eddu' (buffalo), to which Botsa responded by calling him 'Daddamma' (a man who acts like a stepmother). M9.news reports that the session began with a discussion on the DSC notification. Atchannaidu said Botsa was an incapable education minister who could not even get a simple DSC notification passed by then chief minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, but now lectures the NDA government on the same issue. The exchange led to a full-blown confrontation between the ruling NDA and opposition YSRCP.
